I have an excel table with the date to be in column A. I want to make a small calendar appear and select the date from it to insert the date into the cell for each row. I found this possibly useful website, but I do not know how to implement it.


Could someone help me please, either with this site or with a way I could get this done?

Thanks
 
Dave if you need to find your XLStart folder
Open your VBA then press CTRL + G to open the immediates wndow, now copy this into the immediates window
Rich (BB code):
? application.StartupPath
Then press enter. Your path to the folder will be shown
Good tip, I learned something there as well. Thank you!

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
Now I have the date picker inserted but I do not know how to make the little calendar appear when I have the date field selected.

I no longer use it, but if I recall, it shows automatically when you select a cell with a valid date. Is your date entered as text, or is it a valid date?
